All the coins are fair.
Hence probability of occurring of tails for any coin
= 1/2
Probability of occurring of heads for any coin
= 1/2
Probability of occurring of tails for penny, heads for the nickel, heads for the dime, and heads for the quarter
= Probability of occurring of tails for penny
* probability of occurring of heads for nickel
* probability of occurring of heads for dime
* probability of occurring of heads for the quarter
= (1/2)*(1/2)*(1/2)*(1/2)
= 1/16 (or 0.0625)

Question 1 (4 points) Enter an inline fraction (a/b) in simplest form. Matthew flips a coin 1000 times and records which side of the coin lands up: "Heads" or "Tails". Matthew records "Tails" 600 times and reasons that the empirical probability of this coin landing "Heads" up is A but that the theoretical probability of a fair coin landing "Heads" up is A/ Question 2 (4 points) Enter a whole number. A box contains 5 blue balls, 3 red balls,...

Enter an inline fraction (a/b) in simplest form. A box contains identical labels that each have one character written on it. All characters together spell GENEROUS. Six labels are drawn, at random, from the box. If the labels are drawn without replacement, the probability that they are drawn in the order that spells GREENS is A and if the labels are drawn with replacement, the probability that they are drawn in the order that spells GREENS is A
